@@lealor this forum is helpful. I have literally never posted to one before today. You have done so well so far! I am impressed. I do think sugar is a beast to deal with. I am trying to eat a bit more Protein, but of course "cravings' are about so much more satisfaction.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for the fast replies. Helpful!

Had the sleeve June 6th 2015. I have previously lost and gained back 125+lbs through diet and exercise. So far, I have lost 78 lbs, but still need to loose 25-30 lbs from my current 197 (5'8"). Eating is a near-addiction and self-soother for me, so the psychological game is the hardest for me. I have been stopped at 197 for 5 months, basically since the affect of the surgery stopped and I took over. I am joining this group and looking for help to reconnect to eating that makes sense for me. My good habits are: exercise, liquids intake, separating liquids and food, and portion control. I need to work on, food tracking, 3 meals a day, keeping sugar and wheat intake low. Bad habits are sneaking back such as eating jellybeans, and sliders. Also, I am obsessed with popcorn b/c I can eat a lot of it.
